What is Infinite monster : courage, hope, and resurrection in the face of one of America's largest hurricanes about?
Critical Praise for Infinite Monster '' Infinite Monster is a deeply moving, harrowing account of one America's great cities--Galveston--being ravaged by Hurricane Ike. Highly recommended!'' --- Douglas Brinkley , professor of History at Rice University and author of The Great Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast '' Infinite Monster deserves a place alongside Isaac's Storm and A Weekend in September as a tale of a star-crossed city's struggle to endure the ravages of a mammoth hurricane. Leigh Jones' and Rhiannon Meyers' meticulous reporting chronicles the dramatic personal stories that took place on the night Hurricane Ike made landfall and the controversial decisions that had to be made in the storm's aftermath.'' --- Paul Burka , Senior Executive Editor, Texas Monthly ''This is a wonderful book, filled with stories that made me angry (all over again), made me smile, and a few that made me cry. The only story Leigh and Rhiannon don t tell here is their own two young women who lost nearly all they owned to Hurricane Ike but fought on to tell the story. I could not be prouder of these two and the rest of our valiant and resourceful staff at The Daily News
